Hey there!
I was using OBS for some time and did various streams (mostly League of Legends in spectator mode to shoutcast the games). This always worked out fine, I streamed at 720p@30fps (Twitch) and there were no problems at all. However since a few weeks it doesn't really work anymore and I don't know why.
This square in the bottom right of OBS changes it's color from green to yellow to orange to green and so on and sometimes even to red. In this case I often loose frames and sometimes the connection to Twitch is interrupted and I have to reconnect what causes the stream to be down for a few seconds and viewers to fade away.
To configure my OBS I followed guides on this forum until some settings worked for me. But I would really welcome if you guys could help me out with the best settings for my computer and network connection.
Some information you might need: I want to stream at 720p@30fps (it already worked..) and the content of my stream will be League of Legends in spectator mode. During shoutcasting there won't be any music in the background (except LoL sounds).
Graphics card: GTX 560 Ti OC
CPU: Phenom II X4 955 3.0 GHz
8 GB of RAM, OBS currently running on HDD but I could also reinstall it on my SSD
speedtest.net with a server in the same city as the streaming server I use: 20.44Mb/s down 5.05Mb/s up (sometimes it's only at 3-4Mb/s)
testmy.net (33MB file): 2.3Mb/s
If someone could help it would be great! :)
Edit: I added a logfile of a stream where just happened what I described and finally endet in a disconnect.
